Something Awful

Bob Mackey is funny. He’s a local internet writer who just graduated from Youngstown State University and will be heading off to graduate school this fall. In this piece, the world of temping and the world of Youngstown buildings that haven’t been kept up meet and marry like an internet version of Kafka. Call it The Castle Lite.

Make sure to read the whole thing. The last page has a wonderfully funny dialogue. I wish I could just think Bob is making this stuff up, but unfortunately there are also pictures linked (again in the last page) and also I have temped in years past and come across many of these same creatures he describes.
